1932 Alfa Romeo Monza, serial number 2211114

This car was first registered to Scuderia Ferrari on August 11, 1933, although it was probably used in racing events before that. The car was crashed several times and was also re-bodied several times, including a fixed-head coupe body by Zagato. Eventually, the remaining parts of 211114 were acquired by Franz van de Fleuvel and built into a complete car by Paul Grist. The car was offered at auction in December 1996 but did not sell. After the auction the car was purchased by Peter Giddings, who raced the car for several years and then sold it to Peter Greenfield.
